Myrbetriq is a prescription medicine for adults used to treat overactive bladder (OAB) with symptoms of urgency, frequency and leakage.

Talking With Your Healthcare Professional (HCP)

An open and honest discussion is your first step

Overactive bladder (OAB) is a medical condition that may be managed through lifestyle changes and/or prescription medicine. If you think you may have OAB, make an appointment to see your HCP, which could include your primary care physician, OB/GYN, urologist, nurse practitioner, physician assistant, or pharmacist.

Having an open and honest talk with your HCP is an important part of working towards managing OAB. Keep a detailed record of your symptoms to share, and describe how they are affecting you.

Bring up the subject of your bladder symptoms early in your visit so that you have time to discuss treatment options. Don’t be afraid to ask questions.

Here are other ways you can make the most of your HCP visits:

Be proactive.

Make a special appointment to discuss your OAB symptoms, or raise the issue early in your visit, so your HCP knows how you feel.

Be persistent.

Let your HCP know that managing your OAB symptoms is important to you. Make sure you discuss your treatment goals.

Be precise.

Don’t downplay your symptoms; share a written record of your fluid intake, how often you urinate, how many accidents you have, and when they occur.
